my good friend jim demint says it's elected bureaucrats that's like saying our district court judges are unelected. of course they are. that's why we have a judicial process. i don't know whether boeing violated the law or not, all i know is that the general council after investigating this for many, many months decided there was enough evidence to go to an administrative law judge to have this decided. now, again, after the administrative law judge makes his or her decision, it then goes to the national labor relations board, from there to the circuit court, from there to the supreme court. what mr. demint and some of these corporate powers are trying to do is to interfere with that and bully, bully these people into making a decision that may not be the right decision. they want to interfere politically in the judicial process and that's wrong. >> senator demint, let me bring you in here for the final word. can you say that your state is not providing a way for companies to circumvent the unions. it sounds like from your governor who says they're fighting the unions every step of t
